In China, the way to vibrant health does not lead to the doctor's office; it is as close as the air we breathe. In Qigong: Traditional Chinese Exercises for Healing Body, Mind, and Spirit, you will learn ancient techniques for harnessing the massive power of qi — literally, the "vital breath" or energy of the universe.

Thousands of years before the establishment of Western medicine, Chinese masters perfected a system of gentle movements and meditative postures that can channel qi into the body for detoxifying, energizing, and healing. Ken Cohen, preeminent qigong master in the West, presents authentic practices on qigong. Using easy-to-follow language and dozens of demonstrations, Cohen shares a complete four-part workout you can practice any time you have a few minutes and enough room to stand and stretch.

I have found this video being very useful for beginners. There is a clear and easy to follow explanation how to do each exercise. There are basic exercises, however, you can stick to them for good. I would recommend this video for everyone who is on their way to a healthy lifestyle and looking for a way to develop their body, mind, and spirit.

I am very satisfied. My natural inclination isn't using meditation. I am using the DVD almost every morning, as soon as it warms up enough to move inside. I am taking yoga classes so have learned the breathing taught in those classes. Following these directions makes me feel as if my body has had a good airing out and that it can move easily. I think what I like most is the feelings I get of peace and everything is right with my world. I also love the surroundings shown. Thank you.

Easy to follow Ken's instruction and movements. I really needed this basic information as I tried to take a local Qigong class and didn't understand the basic concepts of the teachings so thank you for helping us beginners!

There is a disjoint between how Ken Cohen explains the moves related to what he actually does himself when he performs them. I am not sure if that is the open space where each practitioner interprets for him or herself, or whether I should do what he does or try to do what he says. A bit confusing.

To be honest, I have only viewed this video all the way through once. But I just got it yesterday. My initial feeling and gut reaction to this video offering is... Yes. Yes to the simple, concise instructions of Mr Cohen. From this offering, he embodies the practice he is teaching. I intend to make this a daily practice. In the nineties, I purchased and practiced Mr Cohen's Taoist Healing Imagery. It, too is fantastic.

Ken Cohen's Traditional Chinese Exercises for Healing Body, Mind and Spirit is an excellent introduction to QIGONG. The program starts with a background history of the tradition which I found helpful The reasons and meaning behind the exercises are explained in a cohesive manner. Ken Cohen treats the subject matter with reverence, respect and humbleness.

pretty good teaching. On a few exercises, though, I thought he went too fast. As a result, I had to back it up a few times. Overall, I learned quite a bit. I hope to healthfully benefit from these practices over time.

version and is is no good - I cannot acces a menu and the iphone version starts from the beginning each time! Do not recomend this - I have had to buy the DVD instead - so save the money and only buy the dvd version which works - nice video bad service- sorry - no stars to Sounds True

Mr. Cohen's Qigong series of DVD's are clear, concise, beautifully produced and very helpful as well as inspirational. As an acupuncture practitioner, I have recommended Mr. Cohen's work to many of my clients and they have always been greatly appreciated.

This is the single best qigong video i have seen. I recommend it to all my friends.

Doing Ken's 20 minute session each day has greatly improved my health and well being.

I have videos by Garri Garripoli, David Dorian Ross, John Milton, Terry Dunn, and others. They're all good, even very good, and have some very healthful techniques and excellent teaching on them, but what i really love about Ken Cohen's work is:
1) The 4 part structure; Warmup, expel old chi, bring in fresh chi, balance the chi. No one else gave me such a clear understanding of how the process worked. Whatever pieces i learn from others, i now file in one of these cabinets
2) in addition to this, i find the selection of movements to be excellent. Everything fits together well, there is an underlying unity of purpose
3) Meticulous, detailed explanation. It is slow going for someone looking for instant gratification, but it's clear and leaves little room for error.

I also own his 100 day Training course, which i can also highly recommend.

In my opinion, the price of this video (with practice) can save one a fortune in doctor bills.
Buy it.
